Dominatrix cleared of holding client hostage at knifepoint and torturing him

The alleged victim claimed he had to dance in women's underwear and clean his face with a toilet brush

A dominatrix and two friends accused of holding one of her clients hostage and torturing him have been cleared of all charges.

The alleged victim, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said he was held at knifepoint and had to dance in women's underwear.

He also alleged he had to clean his face with a toilet brush while being filmed.

He said he only got away after claiming to have breathing difficulties and denied making up the story to cover his embarrassment in front of paramedics.

The man claimed he had gone to the home of dominatrix Sinead Nijjer on July 23 last year under the impression she was willing to have sex with him for free, having twice previously paid £50 pounds for oral sex.

He told the jury that when he got to her flat he was jumped on by two men, including one wearing a balaclava and holding a knife.

But at Aylesbury crown court, Ms Nijjer, 20, Leam Ryan, 22, and Rico Awad, 21, all of High Wycombe, Bucks, were cleared of false imprisonment, robbery and common assault.

And Mohammed Awan, 21, of Aylesbury, was cleared of attempting to pervert the course of justice by allegedly ofering the man £1,500 to drop the charges.
